Gravel-Lok stormwater management "glass stream"

Recycled glass in different colors combined with the Gravel-Lok aggregate bonding system to create the look of a water stream. 

"We worked really hard on this project. It was a tricky one because it had to pass muster with conservation people as well as the homeowner. All the plants are wetland natives and the hardscape had to include an outdoor shower, fire area and seating/dining. The hardscape is also seen from a roof deck and is this is an ocean property. The "water" looking storm water feature needed to function as well as look like it belonged in this ocean and wetland abutting home. The "glass stream" functions and looks wave-like,especially because the hardscape drops 7 inches and terminates at the outdoor shower." - Ida Wye Designs

Gravel-Lok Pebbles Patio & Walkway

This Gravel-Lok project by Life Time Pavers utilizes irregular flagstones spaced apart with Gravel-Lok Pebbles filling the voids and then creating a walkway.  The Pebbles (stone styles) are a mixture of Yorktown, Caramel and Coffee Pebbles mixed to match the color of the existing brick on the house. The split face edger was set in concrete producing a durable edge restraint picture framing the project.

Gloucester NJ couple finds unique solution


ECO-NEWS - SOUTH JERSEY ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

What do you do when you think you’re out of options?



  For Scott and Kari Schneider of Thompson Ave. in Gloucester City that‘s just what they thought, they were out of options. Thinking that more concrete for their driveway might be the only option, Kari and her husband Scott put the project on hold.
  Before long Kari called on friend and fellow BNI member Bob Watson, Principal Designer at Restoration Collaborative for some suggestions. “ I can’t take another rain fall that’s gonna leave me sinking in mud in my high heels.” she told Bob, “Help me!” And help he did.
  Within a week Restoration Collaborative had come up with a design that not only solved the parking, muddy, non-useable space problem, but they also suggested a patio and complete landscape to compliment the rest of the yard. Why? Because the more Scott and Kari spoke about their property, the clearer the picture became.
  “The parking area was the biggest need says Schneider,” [Kari] “That had to be addressed before anything else.” “I could wait to get a patio done but I’ve waited too long to walk on something sturdy and dry.”
  [Gravel-Lok] Porous paving was the solution they’d agree on. [Gravel-Lok] Porous paving is a unique resin bonding process that allows stones of most any color and size up to 3”, to bond together like concrete, yet allow water to permeate through without delay.
  “It seemed to be the most cost effective, most durable, eco-friendly option available” says Watson. The new [Gravel-Lok] driveway is harder than concrete, more decorative, won’t fade and best of all you won’t get any grass growing up through the joints, ever. Design options are endless. You can mix sizes, colors and even incorporate patterns. Pricing is set far under that of precast pavers and slightly above concrete. It takes a lot less time to install and cures in 24hrs. “Weather can be a factor” says Watson, “but that’s with anything you do outside.”




  Watson believes porous paving will soon become the “paver replacer” as more regulations require onsite collection of stormwater. It’s just a matter of time.
  Scott and Kari are officially the first family in Gloucester City with a stormwater compliant porous paving driveway. It is one of NJ’s Best Management Practices (BMP’s) for stormwater infiltration & recharge. Just an added bonus when your top priority is “muddy high heels.”

Here are some job pics an info sent to us from BCLS, inc. in Asland VA summarizing a recent Cell-Tek / Gravel-Lok installation at Osbourn High School in Manasas VA.


"I just wanted to share this project with everyone. This was the first time BCLS has done this type of install with Cell-Tek and Gravel-Lok. I also wanted to thank the people involved in this project.
  And a special thanks to Jeremy from Cell-Tek for coming down from Annapolis, MD several times during the install to instruct us on the way to install his products... And another special thanks given to John from Aquarius Supply for helping us with the install, providing us with supplies...

  
Thank you to everyone involved in this project and making this happen!"

 Hi Gravel-Lok, My name is Anthony Lozupone and I own a company called Custom Stoneworks & Design Inc. located in Baltimore MD. We have been serving the Baltimore City, Baltimore Metro, and Washington Metro areas for 18 years.


We started using Gravel Lok about two years ago or so. We love the product for flower beds, city tree pits, off of paver jobs, erosion control areas, under decks, around swimming pools, and for pavements. We have learned so much about the installation process from representatives from your company and hands on experience. We are looking forward to using this product forever and want to thank you so much for everything Gravel-Lok has done for us. Here is some photos of a few jobs.

Thank you, Anthony Lozupone
